HIN IInnfcrA Return.

The Grand Rapids and Ionia Hunting
Club returned last evening from a three
weeks hunt on the shore of Lake Superior.
They insist that they are much improved
physically and that they had splendid luck
and that their lsrders never lacked for
vension, partridge. rabbit. etc. Reports
which reached here q few days ago stated
that they were showed in. This, however.
was exaggerated. They claim that very
little OF the beautiful fell. Among the
party who returned last evening was Fred
Daily, Peter Dressander. senator Douglas,
Charles Bryer, f. D. Mills. John Farrell, of
this city. and William Mead, OF Ionis. One
thing IS certain and that is that the COM
pany were we'll rehearsed before coming
home. for they all tell the same story about
their experiences, with which they will re-
gail their friends the next few weeks.

Little did the prohibition and other
aw abiding democrats of Texas be-
lieve that when they permitted the
ku klux elements of their party TO
crush out free speech and republican

come so soon when they too would
| be denied the right of free speech by
this same ku-klux element. Now
when only the colored vote of Texas

has to undergo. Some people might
think it is an easy thing, but it is a
hard field with all the disappointments
and hard battles. | have come out

started for the west hunting for the
lost sh eep Of the house of Israel, not
knowing whether l would be able

and every church l would 60 to, the
pastor of the church would inform
me that, l received your card and

I am very sorry indeed, but they
would never be sorry enough to give
me a dollar or a nickle. That has been

The Color Line Again.

The clerical and lay delegates who
withdrew from the Episcopal diocesan
convention of South Carolina last
spring, rather than sit beside the few
colored presbyters who are attached
to the diocese, recently presented an
elaborate written argument in at
tempted justification Of their course
1t cannot be said that the defence Is a
particularly successful one,
Beyond repeating over and over
again that it will never do to let a
colored man take part in the councils
of the church, because the practical
result of such permission would be
'to force negro equality upon the
people," the labored document con-
tains little but the somewhat arrogant
hint that the Withdrawing party has
money enough and numbers enough
to gel control of the next convention
and officially declare that the Episco-
pal church Of South Carolina is ex-
clusiyelY white mans church.
Of the consistency of such posi-
ton with the principles of Christian
ity or of its probable effect on the
evangelical work of the denomination
in that State, it is needless here to
speak. But it is important to note
that this sort of feeling still fingers in
some parts Of the South, and SO long
as it does, the full development ther
of that section or of the negro race
cannot be looked for.
These arolinians are quite willing
that cOlored men should be members
of their church, but they insist that
the negro shall not share in the gOy-
ernment of the church.
Now the one thing needtul among
the negroes of the South is the sense
of responsibility which slavery
crushed out. SO long, however, as
the Southern whites say to him, in
effect, that he must have his affairs,
ecclesiastical or industrial, managed
for him by white men as children's
affairs are managed by their parents,
it cannot be expected that he will be
other than child in wisdom or ell
ergy.
Any southern organization, relig-
ious, commercial or political, which
fails to encourage the negroes in car
ing for their own interests and as
suming all the responsibilities of life,
simply retards the coming in fact of
the 'new south" which we already
have in promise. Capital.
